I thank everybody. We will get back to witnesses and we certainly will take up Mr. Morgan's offer when conditions allow. We want to engage and raise this issue in the period ahead. The committee was united yesterday when it said we need to start advocating for resources. The key is to try to get sufficient resources because every child, no matter where he or she comes from or no matter his or her family background, should have access to proper services. That is what we aim to advocate for.

I thank the members and witnesses for their contributions this morning. Our next meeting will be a private one at 11.30 a.m. on 20 May 2021. Our public meeting will be at 12.30 p.m. on the same day.
